David Poile's Integrity

David Poile has previously stated that the Preds will match any offer sheet Shea Weber signs.

If this were any other general manager, it would be fair to think this statement was simply a strategy to deter offer sheets, but David Poile is a man of honesty and integrity.

Poile is the kind of guy that suspends the team's two best offensive players for violating team rules while trailing two games in the Stanley Cup playoffs. It's difficult to see a guy like that go back on his word.
